    The antenna unit must be mounted as far as possible away from the ship’s radars, MF/HF antennas, communication/navigation antennas, VSAT systems and any high power radio transmitter (including other Inmarsat-based systems). As for a ship’s radar (see below), it is difficult to provide the exact minimum distance between a radar and the antenna unit due to different type of radars in terms of power, radiation pattern and operating frequency band.
